Mechanical Options Screen

This screen allows the user to change the number of hoppers, the predetermined gate cycle
time, and the mixer bump time for detecting high level.

The gate cycle time has been measured and set at the factory, but might need to be adjusted if
we change the mechanical design of the gate, solenoids, and air cylinders. This setting will
vary depending on whether you are using a gate or an auger.

Feeder Setup

This screen allows you to modify the type of each feeder. In most cases, the user will want to
keep regrind on hopper 3 because that blender has been specifically designed to handle the
regrind. These settings should only be modified under special circumstances.

If the blender is configured in “EZ Mode” then one hopper must be configured for Regrind
and only one hopper must be configured for Virgin material. If this is incorrect, a message
will be given on the Recipe Screen.
